@medan: yes, the colour is exactly as you see it in the pictures. In the X3 brochure there are also a lot of examples of the colour.
I get a lot of positive comments about the colour, especially about it not being too agressive. I'm a sales manager and although I earned the car with hard work, customers not always like a sales man driving in a big car. This colour makes it a bit less agressive (at leats that's what I tell myself
)
